Fabien Cousteau came to Maui, Hawaii for a vacation, but when he hears that endangered sea turtles are in trouble, he knows he has to help!
Junior explorers Baylor and Bianca join Fabien and local conservationists on their mission to rescue these turtles from ghost nets - fishing nets that have been left adrift in the ocean and tangle up anything that strays into their path. During their dive, they'll also encounter sharks, humpback whales, dolphins, seals, eagle rays, octopi, and the vibrant variety of wildlife that lives among the coral reefs of Molokini Bay. Can the team save these injured turtles in time?
Dive deep into this colorful and informative graphic novel adventure that brings readers up close and personal with the sea creatures of the vast and beautiful Pacific Ocean. Along the way, kids will also see how pollution and climate change can impact entire underwater ecosystems, and find actionable steps that they can take to do their part in reducing waste and protect these precious reefs.
